The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Every Prophet was given miracles because of which people believed, but what I
have been given, is Divine Inspiration which Allah has revealed to me. So I hope that my followers
will outnumber the followers of the other Prophets on the Day of Resurrection."

← Previous Hadith
I was informed that Gabriel came to the Prophet (ﷺ) while Um Salama was with him. Gabriel started
talking (to the Prophet). Then the Prophet (ﷺ) asked Um Salama, "Who is this?" She replied, "He is Dihya
(al-Kalbi)." When Gabriel had left, Um Salama said, "By Allah, I did not take him for anybody other
than him (i.e. Dihya) till I heard the sermon of the Prophet (ﷺ) wherein he informed about the news of
Gabriel." The subnarrator asked Abu `Uthman: From whom have you heard that? Abu `Uthman said:
From Usama bin Zaid.
